(in millions) 2021   2020
       
Net revenue $ 81.5     $ 71.1

The running of the 146th Kentucky Oaks and Derby in the third quarter of 2020 compared to the running of the 147th Kentucky Oaks and Derby in the second quarter of 2021 significantly impacted the comparability of net revenue and Adjusted EBITDA for Churchill Downs Racetrack in the third quarter of 2021.

Excluding Churchill Downs Racetrack, net revenue for the third quarter of 2021 increased $43.3 million from the prior year quarter due to a $24.7 million increase at Oak Grove Racing, Gaming & Hotel (“Oak Grove”) as a result of the opening of the HRM facility in September 2020 and the hotel in October 2020; a $14.3 million increase at Derby City Gaming primarily due to certain capacity restrictions on patrons and gaming during the prior year quarter and the completion of the second outdoor patio which added an additional 225 HRMs in September 2020; and a $4.3 million increase at Newport Racing & Gaming (“Newport”) due to the opening of the facility in October 2020.   

Excluding Churchill Downs Racetrack, Adjusted EBITDA for the third quarter increased $18.3 million from the prior year quarter due primarily to a $9.6 million increase at Oak Grove due to the opening of the Oak Grove HRM facility in September 2020 and an $8.7 million increase at Derby City Gaming due to the increase in net revenue and increased operating efficiencies.

(in millions) 2021   2020

Adjusted EBITDA 20.7     32.6

Comparison of 3Q’21 to 3Q’20:

Advertisement

For the third quarter of 2021, net revenue decreased $25.4 million from the prior year quarter primarily due to a $30.9 million decrease from Horse Racing that was partially offset by $5.5 million increase from Sports and Casino. Horse Racing net revenue decreased as a result of lower handle primarily due to the timing of the Kentucky Oaks and Derby in 2020 and 2021. Sports and Casino net revenue increased as a result of our expansion in additional states and marketing and promotional activities.

Adjusted EBITDA decreased $11.9 million in the third quarter of 2021 from the prior year quarter primarily due to a $6.8 million increase in the loss from our Sports and Casino business due to increased marketing and promotional activities and a $5.1 million decrease from Horse Racing primarily due to the timing of the Kentucky Oaks and Derby in 2020 and 2021.

Comparison of 3Q’21 to 3Q’19:

For the third quarter of 2021, net revenue increased $30.6 million from the same quarter in 2019 due to a $23.0 million increase from Horse Racing and a $7.6 million increase from Sports and Casino. Horse Racing net revenue increased as a result of an increase in handle of $113.2 million, or 30.7%, compared to the same quarter in 2019 primarily due to the shift from wagering at brick-and-mortar locations to online wagering. Sports and Casino net revenue increased as a result of our expansion in additional states and marketing and promotional activities.

Adjusted EBITDA increased $5.0 million in the third quarter of 2021 from the same quarter in 2019 primarily due to an $11.2 million increase from Horse Racing due to the increase in handle, partially offset by a $6.2 million increase in the loss from our Sports and Casino business due to increased marketing and promotional activities.

Gaming Third Quarter
(in millions) 2021   2020
       
Net revenue $ 185.6     $ 133.7  
Adjusted EBITDA 110.7     74.7  

For the third quarter of 2021, net revenue increased $51.9 million due to certain capacity restrictions on patrons and gaming during the prior year quarter. Net revenue increased for all Gaming properties except for Riverwalk and Fair Grounds and VSI. Fair Grounds and VSI were negatively impacted by Hurricane Ida in August 2021, resulting in a temporary closure of Fair Grounds Race Course & Slots and OTBs.

Adjusted EBITDA increased $36.0 million for the third quarter of 2021 from the prior year quarter driven by a $20.9 million increase at our wholly-owned Gaming properties and a $15.1 million increase from our equity investments, both of which were due to increased operating efficiencies and certain capacity restrictions on patrons and gaming during the prior year quarter.

All Other

For the third quarter of 2021, All Other Adjusted EBITDA increased $6.5 million driven by a $5.9 million increase at Arlington due to an increase in handle and admissions, a $0.5 million increase at United Tote due to the increase in net revenue and $0.1 million from lower Corporate expenses.

Use of Non-GAAP Measures

In addition to the results provided in accordance with GAAP, the Company also uses non-GAAP measures, including adjusted net income, adjusted diluted EPS, EBITDA (earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization) and Adjusted EBITDA.

The Company uses non-GAAP measures as a key performance measure of the results of operations for purposes of evaluating performance internally. These measures facilitate comparison of operating performance between periods and help investors to better understand the operating results of the Company by excluding certain items that may not be indicative of the Company’s core business or operating results. The Company believes the use of these measures enables management and investors to evaluate and compare, from period to period, the Company’s operating performance in a meaningful and consistent manner. The non-GAAP measures are a supplemental measure of our performance that is not required by, or presented in accordance with, GAAP, and should not be considered as an alternative to, or more meaningful than, net income or diluted EPS (as determined in accordance with GAAP) as a measure of our operating results.

We use Adjusted EBITDA to evaluate segment performance, develop strategy and allocate resources. We utilize the Adjusted EBITDA metric to provide a more accurate measure of our core operating results and enable management and investors to evaluate and compare from period to period our operating performance in a meaningful and consistent manner. Adjusted EBITDA should not be considered as an alternative to operating income as an indicator of performance, as an alternative to cash flows from operating activities as a measure of liquidity, or as an alternative to any other measure provided in accordance with GAAP. Our calculation of Adjusted EBITDA may be different from the calculation used by other companies and, therefore, comparability may be limited.

Adjusted net income and adjusted diluted EPS exclude discontinued operations net income or loss; net income or loss attributable to noncontrolling interest; changes in fair value for interest rate swaps related to Rivers Des Plaines; Rivers Des Plaines’ legal reserves and transaction costs; transaction expense, which includes acquisition and disposition related charges, Calder racing exit costs, as well as legal, accounting, and other deal-related expense; pre-opening expense; and certain other gains, charges, recoveries, and expenses.

Adjusted EBITDA includes the Company’s portion of EBITDA from our equity investments.

Adjusted EBITDA excludes:

  • Transaction expense, net which includes:
      – Acquisition and disposition related charges; and
      – Other transaction expense, including legal, accounting, and other deal-related expense;
  • Stock-based compensation expense;
  • Rivers Des Plaines’ impact on our investments in unconsolidated affiliates from:
      – The impact of changes in fair value of interest rate swaps; and
      – Legal reserves and transaction costs;
  • Asset impairments;
  • Legal reserves;
  • Pre-opening expense; and
  • Other charges, recoveries and expenses.

For segment reporting, Adjusted EBITDA includes intercompany revenue and expense totals that are eliminated in the consolidated statements of comprehensive income (loss). Refer to the Reconciliation of Comprehensive Income (Loss) to Adjusted EBITDA included herewith for additional information.
